“Welcoming, central, spotlessly clean, great food, felt safe as female traveller. Highly recommended.”
Breakfast not available and thats fine because there are so many places nearby to get someting to eat. The location, staff, the rooms, bathrooms, beds... everything was brilliant. I travelled as a solo female. This is not 'fancy'- it is done to perfection to make you feel at home and understated, calm, unpretentious. I also felt safe in the streets and walking home late, which was a blessing. The restaurant also happens to serves fabulous food.
